I'm not a #$%^%$ *(** teenager any more
Stephen Vakil said:Mmmmm....... Just visited the UK iTunes site and it says that Warm (I haven't checked the others) isn't available on the UK site. My UK details won't log me in to the US site and from what I've seen I can't open a US account.
Oh great.
Mike said:I feel dirty... I just downloaded Warm... I hate myself... this is my first time to buy a music file over the internet. Disgusting. Why is Herb making us do this? Is it a test? Disgusting experiance. First and last time.

If the CDs are in the pipeline to be released soon, then I feel that this ploy of teasing us into buying the iTunes versions first is nothing short of disgraceful.
It appears to me that the loyal Herb Alpert fans are being ripped-off here and I am surprised and disappointed that Herb has a hand in this approach.

I know the feeling. Mike, you're based in Japan, so were you able to download it because of perhaps a US account?

Harry said:Mike, I only asked because of Stephen Vakil's situation above. He's based in the UK and is "frozen out" of the US iTunes system. I'm wondering why you, in Japan, would be able to get in - unless your credit card and/or address are based in the US somewhere.

And as Len stated, we, Herb's lifelong fans deserve better. Even if it doesn't involve a windfall of profit. Especially after all this wait and smoke blown through our ears. I'm sorry. Some of you may be satisfied with this nonesense, but if this is all there is on these titles, I'm TICKED. I never have and never will purchase downloadable music any more than I would purchase the Omega Records crap on eBay. I appreciate whatever efforts are being made by Shout to push for these albums, but digital downloads are just unacceptable after all this time. Randy said ALL the TJB albums would be reissued on CD. I had hoped his word would be gospel. Apparently, it is not.
David,
not impressed with latest news
And what's the deal with the record companies trying to convince us for 20 years to buy the same music over and over again in endlessly remastered upgrades, and then suddenly telling us that sound quality doesn't matter, it's all about convenience?
No. This is about one big album having the spotlight to itself. Remember, two years ago the exact same thing was done with WHIPPED CREAM. The other, less iconic albums were released in threes; WC, the one album from the TJB that nearly everyone knows about, was given a solo spot. Same with RISE.Notice in May, they are only re-releasing one Herb solo CD with "Rise". This all looks like cost cutting to me.
